The Manliest Baby Product

This is the stroller James Bond would be proud to use.

This 1,700-plus word review of a baby stroller originally appeared on Esquire.com. It's the most loving ode to baby gear you'll read in awhile. If this is a sign of the times and gets guys more actively involved in child-care duties, we'll take it. Enjoy!

We men love our babies. We love them so much that we are willing to be seen out with them, accompanied by all manner of pink, baby blue, frilly, Hello Kitty, Minnie Mouse-strewn garments, backpacks, changing bags, and assorted paraphernalia. We find this acceptable. Heck, if we're willing to take a bullet for our babies, then we can deal with a glitter-embossed Smurfette diaper bag. But while it is acceptable, it is not ideal. Surely there are some baby products out there that, while not exactly masculine and cool, would at least not make us feel like we're living an outtake from Three Men and a Baby.

While the general outlook on manly baby gear is bleak, there is one product that will make a man's knees grow weak, his heart flutter faster — a similar sensation to seeing a must-have car. It is a stroller, but to call it a stroller is like calling Chuck Norris an actor. This is the stroller: powerful, well-made, strong enough to off-road, scoffing at potholes, ruts, and cobbles, full of thoughtful features, and brimming with gadgets. Yes, you heard me, men. If James Bond were to have a baby, this would be the stroller issued to him by Q. All it's missing is the pop-up missile launcher and ejection seat. It is the Peg Perego GT3, and it is, far and away, the most masculine and flat-out coolest of all strollers on the market. Believe me: You want this.
